    Hey guys, I've had my NP7352 for a couple of weeks now, and everything has been going fine, but just today my wireless card stopped working completely.

    I'm on Windows 7 and I have the Realtek RTL8723AE Wireless LAN 802.11n PCI-E NIC card. It was working fine before, but now it can't seem to find any wireless network. I have already tried restarting, updating the drivers (maybe I had the wrong ones?), and using the troubleshooter.

    Do you guys have any suggestions as to what I can do to fix this, or maybe some possible solutions?

    Try removing the current drivers for it, then run Ccleaner to clean out the registry entry/entries, and reboot. Windows may install its default driver. If it does, see if you can pick up any networks then. If so, or if it doesn't install its own driver, then try reloading the Realtek driver.

    Worst case scenario is that the card kicked the bucket and will need replaced.

    I tried doing all of that. Windows did download the driver software again, but I still cannot find any networks.

    I have no idea how/where to access the Clevo Control Center.
